BY WASHINGTON IRVING. The grave is the of deal of true It is there the divine passion of the soul manifests its superiority the instinctive impulse of mere ani mal attachment. The latter must continually refreshei and kept alive by the presence of its object; but the ore that is seated in the soul can live on loner remembrance. The mere inclinations of sense languish and decline with the charms, which excited them, and turn with shudder ing and disgust from the dismal pre cincts of the tomb: but It is thence that tru'y spiritual affection rises pu rifled from every sensual desire, and returns like a holy name, to illumine and sanctify the heart ol the sum vor. The sorrow for the dead is the on ly sorrow from which we refuse to be divorced, livery other would we seek to heal every other affection to forget but this would we con sider it a duty to keep open; this af fection we cherish and brood over in solitude. Where is the mother who would willingly forget the infant that perished like a blossom from her arms, though every recollection is a pengT Where is the child who would willingly forget the most ten der of parents, though but to re member, be but to lament? Who, even in the hour of agony, would for get the friend over whom he mourns' Who, even when the tomb is clos ing upon the remains of her he most loved, when he feels his heart as it were, crushed in the closing of its portal, would accept of consolation that. must be bought by forgetful ness? No the love that survives the tomb is one of the noblest attributes of the soul. If is has woes, it has ikewise its delights; and when the overwhelming burst of grief is calm ed into the gentle tear of recollec tion when the sudden anguish and the convulsive .agon v over the pres ent rums of all that we most loved, is softened away into pensive medita tion on all thatit was in thedavs of its oveliness who would root out such a sorrow from the heart? Though t may sometimes, throw a passing cloud over the bright hour of gaietv, or spread a deeper sadness over the hour of gloom, yet who would ex change it even for the song of pleas ure, or the burst of revelry? No there is a voice from the tomb sweet er than song. There is a remem brance cf the dead to which we turn even from the charms of the living. Oh, the grave! It burries every er rorcovers every defect, extinguish es every resentment! From its peaceful bosom spring nothing but fond regrets and tender recollections. Who can look down upon the grave even of an enemy, and not feel a compunctious throb, that he should ever have warred with the poor handful of earth that lies beneath him. But the grave of those we love what a place of meditation! There it is that we call up in long review the whole history of virtue and gen tleness, and the thousand endear ments lavished upon us almost un heeded in the daily intercourse of in timacy; there it is that the tender ness, the solemn, awful tenderness ol the parting scene, the bed of death! with all its stifled grief! its noiseless attendance! its mute, watchful assid uities! the last testimonial of expiring love! the feeble, fluttering, thrilling oh! how thrilling pleasure ol the hand! the last fond look of the gaz ing eye, turning upon us even from the threshold of existence! the faint, faltering a c c e n ts, struggling in death to give one more assurance of Section. Ay, go to the grave of buried love, and meditate! There settle the account with thy. conscience for eve ery past benefit unrequited, every past endearment unregarded, of that departed being, who can never, nev er return to be soothed by the con trition. If thou art a child, and hast ever added a sorrow to the soul, or a fur row to the silvered brow of an af fectionate parent if thou art a hus band, and hast ever caused the fond bosom that ventured its whole hap piness in thy arms, to doubt for one moment of thy kindness or thy truth; if thou art a friend that hast ever wronged, in thought, or word, or deed, the spirit that generously con fided in thee if thou art a lover, and has ever given one unmerited pane to that true heart which now lies cold and still beneath thy feet, then be sure that every unkind look, evenr ungracious word, every un gracious action will come thronging 1 back upon tny memory, Knocking dolefully at thy soul then be sure dolefully at tny soul wen oo sure that thou wilt lie down, sorrowing repeDtant, on the grave, and to be utter the unheard groan, and pour out the unheard and unavailing. Then weave the chaplet of flowers, and strew the beauties of nature bout the grave, console the broken spirit, if thou canst, with these ten der, yet futile tributes of regret; and take warning by the bitterness this, thy contrite affliction over dead, and henceforth be more faith ful and affectionate in the discharge of thy duties to the living. A Singular Adventure. Once on a time a traveller stepped into a post-coach. He was a young man, just starting in life. He found six passengers about him, al! of them grey headed and extremely aged men. The youngest appeared to have seen at least eighty winters. Our young traveller was struck with the singular, mild and happy aspect which distinguished his fellow pas sengers, and determined to ascertain the secret of long life, and the art of making the aged comlortable. He first addressed the one who was appa rently the oldest, who said he always ed a regular and abstemious life, ea- ing vegetables and drinking water. 1 he young man was rather daunted at this, inasmuch as he liked the good things of life. He addressed the sec ond, who astonished him by saying that he had eaten roast beef and gone to bed regularly "high" for seventy years adding that all de pended on regularity. The third had prolonged his days by never seeking or accepting office; the fourth by resolutely abstaining from political or religious controversy; and the fifth by going to bed at sunset and rising at dawn. The sixth was ap parently much younger than the rest; his hair was less gray, and there were more of it a placid smile de noting a perlertly upright con science, mantled his lace, and his voice was jocund and strong. They were all surprised to learn that by ten years he was the oldest man in the coach. "How!" exclaimed our voung trav eller, "how is it that you havtt thus preserved the freshness of life? where there is one wrinkle on your brow, there are fifteen on that of each of your juniors tell me, I pray, the secret of your long lile!" "It is no mystery, said the old man, "I have eaten meat, and I have eaten vegetables, I have held a pub ic office; 1 have dabbled in politics, and 1 have written religious pam phlets. I have sometimes gone to bed at sunset, and at noon; but I always paid promptly for my news paper!" An Item for Greybeards. The True Union, of Baltimore, publishes the following from "an au thentic source." As it may be of im portance to some friends "we wot of," we give it a place: A distinguished General (Twiggs) returned from the Mexican war cov ered with "glory." He had, how ever, two marks of hard service which laurels could not hide as they did Caesar's baldness. One was a head as white as wool, and the other a cutaneous eruption on his forehead. For the latter he was ad vised to try a mixture of sulphur, and sugar of lead and rose water. In ap plying it, some ol the mixture moist ened the hair on his forehead, and after a while this part of his hair re sumed its original color. He then applied the mixture to all his hair, and it all became, and is now, of its primitive sandy hue. He communi cated the fact to some of his friends in Washington especially to some ex-members, who are widowers and seeking preferment and it has been found efficacious in every instance. It does not dye the hair, but seems to operate upon the roots, and re store the original color. The recipe is as follows: 1 drachm Lac Sulphur; drachm, Sugar of Lead; 4 ounces Hose Water; mix them; shake the phial on using the mixture, and bathe the hair twice a day for a week, or longer if neces sary. One of the most heartless displays of political feeling ever heard of took place when Sir Robert Peel was on his death bed. A wealthy farmer of Suffolk county caused the bells of the parish of Bures St. Mary to ring a merry peal. In another place a land holder sent a crier round with the news "that the farmers' enemy was at the point of death." Texas insists that the late President Polk recognized her right to that por tion of New Nexico which she now claims. If this be so, what is meant by the passage in his message to Congress, of December 8, 1840, whicn reads as follows: "By rapid movements the Vtt Fe, out Province of New Mexico, with Santa its capital, has been captured with out bloodshed." tsven. Jour, A Tale of Horror. a- of While traveling a couple of since, we heard from the lips of friend one of the most beart-rending recitals we have listened to for long time. He was put of! from steamboat at or near Wolf Island, about twenty-five miles below the mouth of the' Ohio, for the purpose of collecting a debt from a man liv ing about five miles back in the country, on the Missouri side, we think. With a carpet bag in his hand, he had followed a narrow path about three miles, when came across a small cabin.. Yet 'cab in' would not describe the place habitation, for such it proved to be. It was a little dilapidated shed, with no boards on one side and great cre vices on the other side and in the roof. He would have passed it by, but moans from the inside told that it was occupied. Wishing to inquire his road, he stopped, .and stood be fore the open side of the shed, and gazed upon a spectacle, which, as he said, was present belore his eyes days afterwards, and haunted his sleep. We describe what he saw, as he told us, only saying that strange as the story may seem, full reliance can be placed upon his words There was not a bed or chair in the shed, but stretched upon the bare ground lay the body of a young ish looking woman, who had evi dently just died. Her form was a most a perfect skeleton, yet the face was that of a refined and beautiful woman. On her breast lay an in fant of about six months old, with its mouth to the breast of its mother, and dead. And sitting up in a cor ner of the shed, and staring the trav eler in the face with glazed eyes, was what he thought another corpse, but life was yet in it. lhe figure was that of a girl apparently about ten years old. She could not rise to her feet, and'yet she was not sick. She was literally dying of starvation. By the side of the woman, clasping her hand, lay a man covered with blood and apparently in a dying state. Add to this, the filth of the room and the half naked condition of the sufferers, and we wonder not that the scene long haunted the ob server. He went in. i he girl could not speak, but the man cried 'water,' in a feeble voice, and pointed to the girl as if to attract the stranger's at tention to her. The traveler, Air, J., of Cincinnati, hastened awav, tak ing with him a tin pan, and says he never ran harder in his life than he did about half a mile to a small stream he had passed. On his return, he found the man still alive, and gave him water which he eagerly drank. He could then speak in a whisper. He pointed to the girl and said 'she s starving.' Mr. J. gave the girl some water, which aopeared to revive her, and she tried to talk, but could not. With much difficulty he learned from the man that there was a house about a mile distant, to which he hurried. On his arrival there, he found only a negro. While getting some provisions and hastening back with the man, the latter informed him that the cholera had broken out in that neighborhood, and the family owning him had left for the time be ing. He said the little girl of the shed had daily made her appearance there for provisions until about three days back that the man and wo man had been sick lor a long time. &c. On their return, the man was dying, and lived but ao hour. The little girl was revived by lood, and before they took her away, oould talk. She said she had been sick her self, and could not walk to the house for food, and that her mother died the day previous, and the baby about the same time and that her father had tried to kill himself when they died. It was horrid. The child was taken to the house, and the rest of the unfortunate family buried. The child afterwards stated her name was Mary Williams, and Mr. J. thought, from what he could gath- er,the family had lived in N. Albany, but in what New Albany he could not ascertain, more than as the child said, there were a great many houses there, and it was evidently New Albany, N. York. The negro said the family had been there several weeks, and came directly alter his master had left. As there was not a family in the neighborhood, the person also having gone whom Mr. J. wished to see, the girl, who was sick and exhausted, was left with the negro, who promised faithfully to at tend to her. Yet there were but lit tle hopes of her recovery. It has never been our misfortune to hear a more horrible tale of leality than this. Evant. Jour.

The two most important Dins mat nave yet passed the Senate will not be taken up in the House and they will not pass there with out a severe struggle and a good deal of idle debate. The extreme south ern men will oppose the Calilorni: bill, and do everything in their pow er to prevent its passage, but it is generally conceded in the House that it will go through. There is more doubt about the sue cess of the still more important meas ure the Texas Boundary bill. This will meet with strong opposition from the North as well as the South. The bill providing a territorial government lor New Mexico, will j undoubtedly pass the Senate thi weeg.. i nere is an accumulation o mi a other important business, in the Committee rooms, that imperatively demands immediate attention. If the House pass the Senate bill providing lor a Board of Accounts, it will re lieve both houses of the most trouble some and the most neglected branch of their duties the adjustment of claims against government They cannot fail to take up the bill and pass it at as early a dar as possible, for they almost hourly hear its necessity impressed upon them, by the urgent importunities of im patient claimants, many ol whom have passed session alter session here, impoverishing themselves and their mends by the heavy expense, besides suffering the tortures of hoie delayed, in begging Congress and the departments to pay claims that are just and undoubted, but to which Congress 'have not time to attend.' As business in the committee rooms has heretofore been conduct ed, a shrewd claimant, with monev sufficient to give a few dimes, and employ two or three lobby agents. is quite as likely to get a Mancy' or unjust claim allowed as an honest one. Hy es'aoisning a wen organ n .lata 11 ized Board of Commissioners for the settlement of all claims against gov ernment, more individual suffering will be relieved and prevented, than in the admission of California, or in the extension of a territorial govern ment over Deseret. Another measure ye neglected, n the hands of Congress, to which the present ruinous and sinking con ditionof our manufacturing interests everywhere must have called their attention, is a protective tariff. If we may judge from the tone of the public press in all sections, the coun try will expect that Congress before they adjourn, shall extend some suf ficient and adequate protection over the great and most important re sources of the country. Mr. Casev of Pennsylvania, a few days since made a sound, practical speech upon the subject, and in the course o! his remarks made a startling report of the condition or the iron manufacto ries in Pennsylvania. He had tak en great care that his statistics hould be accurate and reliable. It appears that since 1790, there have been, in Pennsylvania in the iron usiness. 177 failures, and 124 of these have taken place since 1846! n IS49, at the close ol the year. there were 149 furnaces out of 293, that were out of blast, and many more have stopped since. At the closn of the present year, Bbout 100 will be out of employ. A decrease of 49$ per cent, in three years, of pig metal, and 3J per cent, in two ears ol bar metal. In 1S47 there was 40,966 tons of railroad iron manufactured, and in 349 only 18,973; a decrease of 21,- 993 tons, or 54 per centJ If we en quire into the present state of the manutacturing interests m mew England we shall see quite a sad spectacle.

Wonderful Thieves. to to An Englishman who was lately traveling on the Mississippi river told some rather tough stories about the London thieves. A Cincinnati chap named Case, heard these narra tives with a silent but expressive humph! and then remarked that ho thought the Western thieves beat the London operators all hollow.' "How so?" inquired the English man, with surprise. "Pray, sir, have you lived much in the West?" "Not a great deal. I undertook to set up a business at the Desmoines Rapids a while ago. but the rascall people stole nearly everything 1 had. and finally a Welch miner ran off with my wife." "Good Godfsaid the Englishman. "And you never have found her?" ever to this day. But that was not the worst of it." -Worst. Why what could be worse than stealing a man's wife?" "Mealing his children, 1 should say," said the implicable Case. "Children!" Yes; a nigger woman who hadn't any of her own, abducted my youn gest daughter, and sloped and jined ineingtns. w "Great heaven! And did vou see her do it?" "See hert Yes, and she hadn't ten rods the start of me; but she plunged into the lake and swam off like a duck, and there wasn't a canoa to follow her with." The Englishman laid back in his chair and called for another mug of aff-an-aff, while Case smoked his ci gar and credulous friend at the same time, most remorselessly. "I I shan't go any further West think? at length observed the ex cited John Bull. "I should not advise any one to go," said Case quietly. "My brother ones i ved there, but he had to leave, al though his business was the best ia the country." "What business was he in prayr "Lumbering had a saw mill." "And they stole his lumber?" "Yes, and his saw logs, too," "Saw logs!" "Yes. Whole dozens ol finet black walnut logs were carried off in a single nightl" "Is it possible?" "True, upon my honor, sir. He tried every way to prevent it; had had men hired to watch his logs, but it was all of no use. They would whip 'em away as easily as if there had been nobody there. They would steal them out of the river, out of the cove, and even out tha mill ways." "Good Gracious!" "Just to give you an idea how they can steal out there," continued Case, sending a sly wink at the lis tening company, "just to give yoo an idea did you ever work in a saw mill?" "Never." "Well, my brother, one day bought an allfired fine black walnut log four feet three al the butt and not a knot in it. He was determirr- ed to keep that log, any how, and hired two Scotchmen to watch it all niaht. Well, they took a small demijohn of whiskey with them, snaked the log up the side hill above the mill, and built a fire, and then sot down on the log to play keerds just to keep awake you see. 'Twas a monstrous big log bark two in ches thick. Well, as I was saying, thev played keerds and drank whis key all night, and as it began to grow light, went to sleep, a straddle the log. About a minute after day light, George went over to the mill to see how they were getting on, and the log watgonef" "And they setting on itf "Setting on the Bark. The thieves had drove an iron wedge into the hint end. which Dinted down hill, and hitched a voke of oxen on, pull ed it right out," leaving the shell and the Scotchers setting a euaaam of it fast asleep P The Englishman here rose, arop ped his cigar-stump into the spittoon, and looking at his watch, said he thought he would go on deck and see how far we'd be down the river be fore morning. Raisixo Pigs. There Is a good deal said in Agricultural works in relation to raising pigs, but the Mem phis Enquirer gives the following singular item in relation to the rais ing of a thousand pigs of lead, sunk in the Ohio river twenty years ago: "One thousand pigs of lead were recently recovered from the wreck of the steamer Neptune, which was sunk at the mouth of the Ohio river in the year 1830, twenty years ago. This lead was taken to New Orleans in the steamer Mohawk a few days since.

Tb following resolution! were adopted at the Democratic Convention, mhich assembled in Columbus, on the 4th of July, 1850. Let the PEOPLE OF OHIO iuo aho remember them: Besolred, That with reference to the cur rency question, the Democracy of Ohio plants itself upon the Constitution of the United States The currency fixed by that instru ment we desire to restore and establish, and we will use all legal and honorable means to accomplish this object; and being sincerely opposed to the existence of banks for the cir culation of paper money, we are utterly op posed to any feature being incorporated into the new Constitution, by which the Legislature of Ohio would bare the power to create any bank for the circulation of paper money. Resolved. That we consider it the duty of all oar public officers, after taking the oath to support the Constitution of the United States, to make all payments, in their official capaci ty, in constitutional currency, instead of pa per money; and that we evpecially demand from the Board of Public Works thit they convert all paper money which may come under their control into specie, and in that shape disburse it. Resolved, That banks of circulation are bos- tile alike to the equal rights of the people, and the principles of sound political economy; that hard money is the only currency recognized by the Constitution, the only currency that deh-auds no man, the only currency that is ex pedient and lust; and we hold it to be ineon sistentwith the principles of the party for democrats to participate in creating or up holding banking institutions.

The General Assembly shall pro hibit by law any person or persons, association, company or corporation, now in existence. from exercising the privilege of banking, or cre ating, emitting or putting in circulation any bank notes, or paper or any description what ever, to circulate as money or currency. "Sec. 3.

A Word concerning Legislative Nominations. liSSSi One week from Saturday next, Sept 7th, the Whigs of this Legislative dis trict meet to make their nominations one candidate for Gallia and Jackson and one for the four counties. We be lieve it is generally understood that one of these candidates is to be selected from Jackson, and the other from Gal lia county. The cause that gave the advantage to our opponents last fall and spring, in the district composed1 of this and Jack son counties, must be avoided. With discreet action it can be, and the nomi nee elected by an old fashioned Whig majority. Our opponents are a unity, ready to take advantage of any opening in our line. Shall this district, with a Whig majority of 300, record an affir- j mativo vote on the issue presented by the Locofoco platform at the head of our columns? Shall it cast a vote for a Locofoco U. S. Senator, or perhaps for Giddings, should a balance of power render it the best bargain? They are anxiously waiting for such a state of af fairs among the Whigs, as may enable them again to slip in their man. It rests with the Wilksville convention to gratifjr or disappoint them. Give us a man that is free from the taint of fac tionone who is enough of a Whig to put the success of Whig principles be fore self and his prejudices, and the honest and true Whigs of the district will elect him. Ironton. Col. Nigh, Deputy Mar shal of Lawrence county, informs the Register that the number of inhabitants of Ironton is 574. That paper says: This is a larger population than those best acquainted had anticipated. It is to be noted that it is not yet 15 months since the first lots were offered for sale in Ironton. An Excellent Nomination. N. H. Van Vorhes, Esq., senior ed itor of the Athens Messenger, is the Whig candidate for Representative in the next Legislature, from the counties of Athens and Meigs. We are right glad to make this announcement. A better man and truer Whig could not have been selected. He will of course be elected. O-See the advertisement of Gabriel Johnson, who has planted his Pole op posite Mr. Coleman's Hotel. Judge Johnson is addressing the citizens in the middle and northern portion of the State, according to appointment. While the Whig can didate is thus before the people pro claiming his opinions and views, Judge Wood, his opponent, plays the mum game, and leaves those who have a right to know his opin ions in the fog concerning them. Two years ago Judge Wood's friends talked flippantly about mum candi dates, and were so anxious that the pfiople should hear from the Whig candidate, although there were no questions before the people upon which Gov. Ford had not expressed his views without reserve. But how is it nowT Judge Wood was once understood as being a soft; the con vention that nominated him was har der than any of its predecessors. How w the Judge mum. Once amid "noise and confusion" it was thought this standard bearer's colors appro priately belonged in the van of the Free Soilers. Again it is said, he pro nounced the Wilmot Proviso a hum bug. What is true and what false? We suspect that this two sided Lo cofoco chief, furnishing his friends as he does with so strong evidence that they can swear he is anywhere or nowhere, is the very man our Loco friends want, and the contrariety of his expressed opinions, his greatest recommendation. Already do we notice that on the Reserve, the Aboli tion side is being presented for the admiration and support of those whose tastes tend that way to one he is a soft money Democrat,' to an other a constitutional ha:d. No wonder the Judge is mum. Free Soil. The Free Soilers have nominated a Reverend Edward Smith, of Morrow county, for Gov ernor, and Uriah Seeley, of Lake county, for the Board of Public Works.

It will also be seen that he advertises for five or six good journeymen carpen ters. ed or N. by his as in Elective Magnetism—Prof. Page's Experiments. A series of lectures have been giv en at the Smithsonian Institute, in Washington, by Prof. Page, of the Patent Office, in illustration of his recent experiments on Electro Mag netism as a motive power. It will be remembered by our readers, that a year or two ago Congress voted this gentleman some twenty thou sand dollars to enable him to carry on a set of interesting experiments on the subjects, which he had begun, and which promised to be highly successful. Since then he has pros ecuted his investigations and profes ses to have discovered the great se cret of which so many practically scientific men have been in search. His experiments shown at the insti tute, according to the reports of the Washington papers, prove that mag netism, while it is motive of greater power than steam, will yet be fur nished at a cheaper rate. The Intel ligencer says: "He exhibited the most imposing experiments ever witnessed in this branch of science. An immense bar of iron, weighing one hundred and sixty pounds, was made to spring up by magnetic action, and to move rap idly up and down, dancing like a feather in the air, without any visi ble support". The force operating upon the bar, he stated to average three hundred pounds through ten inches of its motion. He said he could raise this bar one hun dred feet as readily as through ten inches, and he expected no difficulty in doing the same with a bar weigh ing one ton, or a hundred tons. He could make a pile driver, or a forge hammer, with great simplicity, and could make an engine with a stroke ol six, twelve, twenty, or any num ber of feet. "The most beautiful experiment we ever witnessed was the loud sound and brilliant flash from the galvanic spark, when produced near a certain point in his ereat magnet. Each snap was as loud as a pistol; and when he produced the same spark at a little distance from this point, it made no noise at all. This re cent discovery is said to have a prac tical bearing upon the construction of an electro-magnetic engine. Tru ly a great power is here; and where is the limit to it? He then exhibited his engine of between four and five horse power, operated by a battery and contained within a space of three cubic feet It looked very unlike a magnetic ma chine, it was a reciprocating en gine of two feet stroke, and the whole engine and battery weighed about one ton. W hen the power was thrown on by the motion of a lever, the engine started off magnifi cently, making one hundred and four teen strokes per minute, though, when it drove a circular saw ten in ches in diameter, sawing up boards an inch and a quarter thick, into laths, the engine made but about eighty strokes per minute. There was great anxietv on the part of the spectators to obtain specimens of these lathsto preserve as trophies of this great mechanical triumph. "The force operating upon this cylinder throughout the whole mo tion of two feet was stated to be six hundred pounds when the engine was moving very slowly; but he had not been able to ascertain what the force was when the engine was run ning at a working speed, though it was considerably less. The most important and interesting point, however, is the expense of the power. rroi. rage stated that he had re duced the cost so far, that it was less than steam under many and most conditions, though not so low the cheapest engines. With all the imperfections of the engine, the consumption of three pounds of zinc per day would produce one horse power. The larger his engines (con trary to what has been known be fore.) the greater the economy. Prof. Page was himself surprised at the result. There were yet practi cal difficulties to be overcome: the battery had yet to be improved: and it remained yet to try the experi ment on a grander scale, to make a power of one hundred horse or more.

The news from the various dig gings which we extract from the Sacramento papers, and from our correspondence is certainly the most encouraging we have had for some length of time. The discoveries of rich placers, and the frequent exhi bitions of large and immensely valu able specimens, have imparted a de gree of activity and life to all branch es of business throughout the up river towns, such as has not been known since last fall. The Marysville and Yuba Mining Company had almost finished their work of turning. From the peculiar natural configuration of the ground the labor of twenty-five men is suffi cient in a few days to divert the course of the stream for nearly four miles. Most of the citizens of Ma rysville went up on Wednesday to see the operations. The stock in the association has advanced more than one thousand per cent already. In the numerous streams running out from the lakes in the mountains they found gold in quantities which warranted their despatching their animals immediately for full supplies of provisions. We saw a gen-leman from Culoma yesterday, who takes things easy, and don't follow the rush, but makes a fresh lookout for himself. He has prospected for three months past through the canons between the mid dle and North Forks. He came across two or three rich spots of no great extent, taking out from one of them 4000 in six days, chiefly in large lumps, many of which were shown us. Places Times. MARSYVILLE, July 10, 1850. We have just been called upon to look at a "big lump'" taken from the vicinity of the Yuba river, and which arrived in town last evening. It was taken, about six miles from the forks, and about 7o miles from this town. The weight of the piece is something over 33 !bs., composed of quartz and gold intermixed. [Marysville Cor. of the San Francisco Cour. July 15.] Persons have been coming in du ring the past two "r three days, from the mountain regions, whither they have been prospecting. One or two have been as far over as Humboldt's Bay, and from thence along the Trinity river to its sources. They speak discouragingly of the prospect for diggings on Trinity; but represent the country down towards its mouth, and the Bay, as being admirably adapted to agricultural purposes, being well timbered and watered, and Hhe soil extremely fertile. Be sides, there have been many fine val leys discovered by some of those par ties this, spring, ol considerable ex tent, on both sides of the Coast Range, near the sources of the Sacra mento River. I have endeavored to procure ss accurate a description of these valleys and their location, from the individuals, as. possible; as they are represented as' being well adap ted to the purposes of agriculture, and are considered new discoveries, rw I I a i nose wno nave ueen working on Deer Creek, have confined their operations to working in the bed of the creek; but some Germans at work struck out iu the bank, and commenced digging some four or five miles from Nevada city, and they struck a very rich lead, finding it in lumps of from an ounce to $150. his I had this morning from a miner who bad just lelt there, and is re moving to Feather river; and who, himself, saw the lumps, the three men having taken out $700 in the course of a couple of hours in lumps of gold. Wherever discoveries are made. there is a rush made at once, and eve ry foot of ground located. Some new discoveries have been made on the Middle Fork of Feather River, account of one of which I have heard from various other persons.

and this morning from one of the lucky individuals. This location was a point some thirty miles above Spring Town, where these persons had made a race and drawn off the water, and found a rich deposit, from which, with one more engaged in bailing out the water, and two work ing the rocker, they took out $900 in three hours, andho next day $700 in the same time, when the water rising, and breaking through their dam compelled them to quit work. So rich is the deposit that my infor mant says that just as they were leaving the work, he made a grab and got a single handful of earth, out of which, on a wager, he washed out an ounce bv panning. A gen tleman of this place, and a friend of mine, has made an offer this morn ing, of $2500 for one of the three shares and he is well posted upon these matters. From Nevada and Gold Run. A friend lately from Nevada informs us, that the stream that run through that place called goli run, of which surprising accounts have been given, have all been dug over, up to the hills in which they commenced. On coming to the hills, however, the leads continued extremely rich, and the miners are still working into the banks. In some instances forty feet of earth have been thrown off belore reaching the deposits of gold, and as the laborers continue penetrating, the amount to be removed will in crease. Whenever the gold is reached, it is found in large quanti ties. Of course the larger share were not so fortunate. Quite a se rious accident happened in the side of one. While a party of four men were digging, undermining a place, and following a lead into the bank, the earth above caved in upon them and all were crushed to death in stantly. Our informant did not know their names, but they were from the State of Maine. The hills and ravines around Ne vada have all the appearance of be ing very rich with gold. It has late ly been found scattered promiscuous ly over the hills, mixed in with the very top soil, where the earth is dry and dusty, like ashes. Quite a large number are engaged in gathering up this soil from the hills, and packing it on mules, or carting it to Deer Creek, where it is washed. Nevada is becoming a lively little town. Some four or five thousand people are said to be in its vicinity, Sac. Transcript, July 11. From the Placer Times, 29th ult. MARYSVILLE, .L.IXDA AND THE Mines. The Gold Lake excitement, so much talked of and acted upon of late, has almost entirely subsided. A crazy man comes in for a share of the responsibility; another report is, that they found one of the pretended discoverers, and are about lynching him at Marysville. Indeed we are told that a demonstration against the town is feared by many. People who have returned, after travelling some 150 tc 200 miles, say that they left a vast number of parties roam ing about between the sources of the Yuba anu Feather rivers. It is as serted, also, that a fair order of dig gings are to be found in that region, and that if they choose to be content under their disappointment they could do tolerably well, aj provisions are superabundant.

She brings only two davs later advices from California than the Philadel phia. She brings 103 oassengery. There is a large amount of gold the hands of passengers, and consid erable on freight.

We have quite late information from me oouinern mines, representins 1 r- matters mere as still in a very un .1 o settled and excited state, particular ly in me region ol the town of Sono ra. It has become a matter of cer tainty, that not only are there a large number of thieves and murder ers roaming through the Southern mining districts, but that mere is a regularly organized band of despe rate characters, composed of Mexi cans, Chilenos, and, it is thought, some equally demoralised white men who have banded themselves togeth-i t r he of by eras guerrillas for the purpose of plunder. SSol oniy is ine miner, re turning with his hard-earned gains, subject to their remorseless attacks, but the trader, while upon on i""o- ly path, laden with supplies, laiu a victim to their rapacity. The existence of the guerrilla band, of which we have spoken, is confirm ed by a private letter, handed us by a gentleman doing business in Sono ra, but now in this city. It is from his partner, and bears date on the night of the 10th insU He states that a posse of about one hundred persons had just brought into town five Mexicans, who had been found in the act of 'burning the bodies of two Americans," whom it is suppos ed they had murdered and robbed that night. Outrages of this kind have been frequent, and have at last aroused the people of Sonora to decided action. Four of them would undoubtedly be hung, but the fifth used as evidence to detect the residue of the party. P. S. Since the above was writ ten, we have received some addi tional particulars from the same source, relative to the five men ac cused of the heinous offence of mur dering and burning the bodies of their victims. It appears that they were taken out on the hill as stated, convicted by Judge Lynch, and sen tenced to be hanged. Just as they were about to string one of them up, the officers of the law arrived, and with the aid ol some who had become somewhat more considerate and calm, rescued the accused, and suc ceeded in getting them into jail to await trial. The Mob in Chillicothe. We yesterday alluded to an attack made upon the house of the sisters of No tre Dame, a branch establishment of one in Cincinnati. They came to the former city, purchased property and opened a seminary for the edu cation of young children and females. Several times this house has been shamelessly attacked and stones and rotten eggs thrown into the win dows. The Catholics held a mee ting on Monday evening last, and passed resolutions, repudiating the idea of mingling secular affairs "with politics, but pledging themselves not to vote in future for candidates not known to be favorable to an equali ty of rights; resolving to protect themselves with repelling force by force unless the city authorities would protect them, and offering a reward of $50 for the apprehension of the depredators. To this the city council has added $50. It U to be hoped that this reward will lead to the arrest of the guilty persons. They are said to be mostly boys.

The Senate to-day, as yesterday, was warmly engaged in considering the fugitive slave bill, and such amendments as have been offered to it Mr. Pratt offered an amendment of much importance to-day, which brought out some very able discus sion. It, in effect, obligates the Uni ted States Treasury to pay for each runaway slave that cannot be re covered by his owner from the State to which he has fled. It provides that the owner may commence a suit for damages against the United States District Attorney, in the Stats in which the owner of the slave re sides, and a verdict in favor of tha plaintiff shall constitute a sufficient voucher for the Treasury of the Uni ted States to pay over to the owner the price of the lost slave.

SYMPTOMS OF DISEASE Should aerrr be disregarded. They are on- erring indications that th e vital functions of nV" h've been interrupted in their health ful action, and that serious evils must inevit ably follow, unless the system be again set right by (be timely use of proper remedies. And, in seeking these, it is all important that resort be not had to drastic purgative or other medicines of a violent kind, whirh reduce the strength, and so prostrate the powers of na ture, that they are unable to repel the threat ened attack. CyBear in mind, that nature is ever en- dea voting to expel disease when it invades the animal economy, and only needs the assis tance of some genial restorative thorough, yet mild in its action that will give tone to the system, and act cro.v the blood which is the principle of b'fe. A GuywWi Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla, as a purifier of the blood, a renovator of the sys tem, and a supporter and preserver of the powers of life, it has no equal.

Tbe au- swer is plain because no Medicine of the kind has ever beea put before the public so efcser ring of the rich laurels it has acquired and it will continue to gain frieads as long as it per forms the most extraordinary cures of various descriptions, after the doctors and all other remedies had failed. We do not ooly say that the genuine H. G. Farrell's Arabian Lini ment can and seer perform cures which no ofA- r medicine eon do, but you have here certifi cates of what it hat done. Thadeus Smith, of Mudd Creek. Tstewell en. Ills, says "1 bad lost the use of my arm for more than a year by palzy or paralvsia: the flesh bat entirely m ithered away, leaving noth ing but skin, muscles and bone. I tried all the best doctors and all the remedies I could bear of, but they did no good. I then commenced the use of H. G. FarrelPs Arabian Liniment, and a few bottles entirely cured me. and mv arm is now as strong and fleshy as the other. It is also first-rate for burns, sprains and bruizes. The celebrated Doc-roa Jitie, whose repu tation as a benefactor to mankind extends over the whole world, reports that a ladv of one of the first families ia Pbiladelonia had been eon fined to her bed fourteen year irith Rheuma tism, and was cured oy H. G. Farrell's Ara bian Liniment. He also says: "Your lini ment is going rapidly; send me a supply imme diately by Leeche's fast line." My daughter, when 6 months old, was taken With a swelling in the tonsils, which grew lar ger and larger, till when 6 years -old she had great difficulty in swallowing her food. Every night, watch was kept, fearing she would suffo cate. The best doctors attended her, but could give no relief. I took her to the most eminent doctors in the East; the said there was no help for ber but to outgrow it. With a sad heart I returned home with her, when she became so much worse that the doctors had to be called in again they decided th tonsils must be cut off, as the only means of giving relief. My wife would not consent to this, and she determined to tty your liniment, which gave relief the very first applicatien, and by a continued use she entirely recovered she is now 10 years old, and fleshy ami healthy as could be desired. Your lihin.ent is also tbe best in use for sorains, bruizes, cuts, burns, headache, tec. and it will retnrve tbe most severe pain in a few minutes. It also cured eaked udder in my cow in a few dars. GEORGE FORD, Peoria, March 20, 1349. Mr. H. G. Farrell Your Arabian Liniment is the greatest medicine for horse flesh in the world. I bad a mare about to foal, when she became so he'pless that she could not rise from the ground she was in this way for several days, whea with seven others I succeeded in raising ber up, which was the only way it could be done, when I commenced the use of your excellent liniment, rubbed in well over the loins, and astonishing as it may appear, before 1 used up a bottle or tbe dollar size, she was able to get up and walk herself. I would not have given ten dollars for ber before, and many advised me to shoot her to put her out of mise ry she is now one of my best mares. I sup. pose it was a strain in the loins. G. W.

Kenneth's Letter to Gen. Cass. The following letter from the Hungarian patriot, was recently received by Gen. Cass, and the no ble sentiments it contains, will richly repay its perusal: KUTALYA, (Asia Minor,) KUTALYA, (Asia Minor,) May 25, 1850. General It is already ten months that 1 have the anguish of exile to endure. Nature has man's mind with won iWful elasticity endowed. It yields to many changes of fate, and pets unntlniiiaJ trjtn tn 1Vfr51lV. JU tr nne thintr the natriot's heart nev. er learns to inure itself to the pangs v 'um.mivr von patrician of vni.b who when banished, feigned b h treason, that he might at least from the scattoid cast over me iubuo a glance once more. This fond desire I can easily un derstand. I can so the more, be cause yon Venetian, though exiled, knew his fatherland to be happy and ereat; but I, sir, carry the dolor of milllODS, uie puius vi 0 inTTMi.wuuwu country in my wounded breast, with out having even the sad consolation to think that it could not otherwise be. Ohl had Divine Providence on ly from treason designed me to pre serve, I swear to Almighty God the threatening billows of despotism would have fallen like foam from the rock of my brave people's breasts. To have this firm conviction, sir, and, in stead of the well deserved victory of freedom, to find ourselves in exile, the fatherland in chains, is a pro found sorrow, a nameless grief. Neither have I the consolation to have found mitigations of this grief at the hospitable bearth ot a great free people, the contemplation ol" which, by the imposing view of free dom's wonderful powers, warms the despondent heart, making it in the destiny of mankind believe. It Is not a coward lamentation which makes me say all this, Gene ral, but the lively sense of gratitude and thankful acknowledgments for your ge'.erous sympathy. I wan ted to sketch the darkness ol my des tiny, that you might feel what bene fit must have been to me your beam of light, by which you, from the Cap itol of free America, have heightened my night. It was in Broussa, General, that the notice of your imposing speech has reached me; in yonder Broussa, where Hannibal bewailed his coun try's mischief, and foretold the fall of its oppressors Hannibal, exiled like myself, but still unhappier, as he was accompanied in exile by the ingratitude of his people, but I by the love of mine. Yes, General, your powerful speech was not only the inspiration of sympathy for unmerited misfor tune, so natural to noble, feeling hearts: it was the revelation of the justice of God it was a leaf from the book of fate unveiled to the world. On that day, General, you were sitting, in the name of mankind, in tribunal, passing judgment on despotism and the despots of the world, and as sure as the God of Justice lives, your verdict will be accomplished. Shall I yet have my share in this great work or not? I do not know, Once almost an efficient instrument in the hands of Providence, I 8m now buried alive.. With humble heart will I accept the call to action, should I be deemed worthy of it, or submit to the doom of inactive suf ferings, if it must be so. But, be it one or the other, I know that your sentence will be fulfilled. I know that aged Europe, at the sun of free dom's young America, will herself grow young again. I know that my people, who proved so worthy of liHerty, will yet, notwithstanding their present degradation, weigh heavy in this balance of fate; and I know that as long as one Hungarian lives, your name, General", will be counted among the most cherish ed in my native land, as the distin guished man who, a worthy inter preter of the generous sentiments of the great American people, has up on us poor Hungarians the consola tion bestowed of a confident hope, at a moment when Europe's decrep it politics seemed our unmerited fate forever to seal. May you be pleased, General, to accept the most fervent thanks of an honest friend of freedom. Let me hope that should Mr. Ujhazy, (my oldest and best friend, and present representative in the United States;) In the interest of the holy cause to which you have so generously your protection accorded, address himself to you for something which you might, in your wisdom, judge con venient and practicable, you will not withhold from us your powerful support; and please to accept the as surance of my highest esteem and roost peculiar veneration. L. KOSSUTH Anc. Gov. of Hungary. To the Honorable General Cass, Washington. J hope you will excuse my bad English. I thought it my duty to address yon in your own language. Theory, said Leonardi da Vinci, is the general, and Practice the soldiers Mahkied Mbi. So good was he that I now take the opportunity of making a confession which I have nftnn had nnnn mv liDS. but have k;sj nMMir frnm the (ear ol Arr;nrr nmn mvself the hatred ol every married woman. But now I will run the risk-so now for it some time or other, people must un u.tr,.n f heir hearts. I confess then that I never find, and never have found a man more loveable, more captivating, than when he is mar ried: that is to say, a good mar ried man. A man is never so hand some, never so perfect, in my eyes, as when he is married, as wnen ne is a husband, and the father of a fami ly, supporting in his manly arms, wife and children, and the whole do mestic circles which, in his entrance into the married state, closes around him, and constitutes a part of his home and world. He is not merely enobled by this position, but he is ac tually beautified by it then he ap pears to me as the crown of creation; and it is only such a man as this who is dangerous to me, and with whom I am inclined to fall in love. But then propriety forbids it. And Moses, and all European legislators declare it to be sinful, and all mar ried women would consider it a sa cred duty to stone me. Neverthe less, 1 cannot prevent the thing;. It is so and it cannot be otherwise; and my only hope ol appeasing inose who are excited against me is in my further confession, that no love af fects me so pleasantly; the contem plation of happiness makes me so happy, as that between married peo ple! It is amazing to myselt. De- cause it seems to me that I, living unmarried, or mateless, have with that happiness little to do. But it is so, and always was so. Miss Bre mer. Treatment of Cholera by Emetics. A discussion was carried on last year, in the columns of the Frankfort Commonwealth, between Dr. A. M. Blanton, of Frankfort, and Dr. J. H. Hawkins, of Harrison, in which tba former advocated and the latter op posed the use of emetics in cholera. The last number ot the Common wealth contains a communication from Dr. Hawkins, in which he frankly and fully surrenders his for mer notions and gives in his adhe sion to Dr. B's doctrine. He has tried the emetic treatment in several severe cholera cases this summer, in all of which it has been effective, whereas if the old remedies had been used, they would, he believes, have proved fatal in every instance. Dr. II. gives ipecac, mixed with the tinc ture of capsicum, until vomiting is produced, and the action of the stom ach is changed so as to prevent the lormation of water. After llieslom ach is well cleansed by a vomit, he gives calomel, opium and camphor. This matter is certainly well deser ving the attention of physicians. Any change from the old plan as generally practiced would he an improvement. Louisville Courier. Paper Made in IS00. The Chi nese affirm that eighteen centuries ago, thev discovered the secret and means of manufacturing paper; be fore that invention they used to in scribe written characters on thin strips of bamboo, or sheets of metal, using a style, or pen of iron, for the purpose of making the characters; and this, they assert, had been the practice of their nation from the most remote ages. In the first century of the christian era, during the Han dy nasty, a mandarian, who was at tached to the Emperor's Court, and whose name was Sailum, discovered the art of paper making. Tr'Horace Vernet. the distin guished artist, whom all acknowl edge to be at the head of the French school of painting, is said to have received from -the Emperor of Rus sia the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for his pictures of the Rus- s i a n battles in hunsrarv. One would think that such pictures as those must be would shame rather than flatter the royal purchaser to look upon. It is perpetuating that which he ought to pray that posteri- j ty might never learn the odious tyranny and cruelty of a despot. Death from Eating Matches. A child of Mr. McCormick, of this city, two years of age, died a few days since in consequence of eating the phospho rus irom a oox oi matcnes, which the servant had given him to play with. Powerful medicines were administered, and the child had apparently recovered, but about three weeks afterwards he was taken suddenly ill. A physician was called, who pronounced it a case of poison; and, after he had been informed of the cause, said that a particle of the phosphorus had remained in the stom ach causing inflammation.

A Hunga rian Exile, Dr. Gabor Naphegyi, re siding at Washington, has just exe cuted a very curious and beautiful piece of chirography, intended as a letter of condolence to Mrs. Taylor, relic of the late President The whole work was done with pen and ink, on a sheet of paper five feet long by seven broad. It contains eighteen poetical inscriptions, in as many different languages, and a like ness of Gen. Taylor, in which the out lines of the face and whole person are formed of written portions of the biography and sentiments of the de ceased. His hair is composed of the follow ing words, so disposed, as at a little distance to appeal quite natural: "In the battle-field, amidst the sound ol cannon, the drums and trumpets, the hurras of the siege, and the sighs of the wounded, my locks became whi tened." The eye?, viz: My glance was ever forward to the r ather in ileav en, and for the Republic." The nose is composed of the fol lowing words: "I breath always the air ot liberty in any other air I conld not exist. His mouth is composed from his last words: "I have always done my duty. I am not afraid to die. The neck: "Not proud, save only in being a son of the Republic, and in its service." The shoulders: "With pleasure I have borne the greatest duties with which the nation has honored me." The rest of the portrait is filled a up in a similar manner, ana sur rounded by likenesses of Washing ton, Tell, Fredrick, Barbarossa, Alexander the Great, and Drago. The whole is signed by the Presi dent and members of both Houses of Congress, and is to be presented in the lorm of a memento from them to Mrs. Taylor. Getting up to it. "Somewhere about here," a southern correspondent, lives a small farmer of such .social habits that his coming home intoxicated was no unusual thing. His wife urged him in vain to sign the pledge. "Why you see," he would say,"I will sign it after awhile, but I don't like to break right off at once; it aint wholesome. The best way always is to get used to a thing by degrees you know." "Very well, old man," his help-mate would rejoin, "see now if you don't fall into a hole some of these days, while you can't take care of yourself, and no body near you to help you out." Sure enough, as if to verify the prophecy, a couple of days after he tumbled into the well. Here the old toper, after a deal of useless scrambling, shouted for the "light of h.n eyes to come and help him out. "Didn't I tell you so," said the good soul, showing her cup-frill over the edge of the parapet; 'you've got into a hole at last, and it's only lucky I'm in hearing, or you might havedrow- ed, you old dog you! Well," she con tinued, after a pause, letting down the bucket, "take hold." And up he came, higher at each turn of the windlass, until the old lady s grasp slipping from the handle, down he went to the bottom again! i his oc curring more than once, made the temporary occupant of the well sus picious. "Look here,' screamed he, in a fury at the last splash, "you're doing that on purpose I know you are!" "Well now, I am," responded the old 'oman, tranquilly, while winding up once more. Don't you remember telling me it's best to get used to a thing by degrees? I'm afraid if I was to bring you right up on a sudden, you wouldn't find it wholesome!" The old fellow could not help chuckling at the application of his principle, and protested he wouia sign the pledge on the instant if she would fairly lift him out. This she did, and packed him off to swear in," wet as he was. "For you see," she added very emphati cally, "ii you ever fall into the well again, I'll leave you there I will. Knickerbocker.

Villenotu, Chaut. Co- N. Y June 15, M7 f)r. G. C. Vaughn: Dear Sir: Some Ii years since, I began to feel difficulty in tbe kidneys, or 1 had at that period tbe disease ol Gravel. In a year or two after, unmistakable symptoms of G.avel, in its first stages, were manifested, and tbe painful disease increased uDon me every rear. My sufferings now be gan and my distress was increased by the piles. which beran to trouoie me. l was at last perfect misery Irom this disease internal ana external. Bv these distressing complaints my health was impaired. I gradually los t my strength. and for some few years lingered on in hopeless suffering. Two years ago with tbe gravel and the piles upon me in tbe worst form, 1 ww tat en with dropsy; it came upon me gradually, first a swrllinc of the limbs at night, and dis appearing with exercise sudi little as I was able to take: it then grew worse, tbe whole system became filled with water, and I was at last inrapable of locomotion,--was confined to my room and in expectat ioa of never leaving it again. Through tbe wbole tedious mteen years I had passed, I sought the advice of the first medical men of tbe State. Palliatives were given me. but I grew worse, and tbe dis ease baffled me oi practitioners ana their medicines. It was at this stage that I first beard oi your article, the Litbontriptie. I procured it The action on the kidneys the piles, and my system otnerwise was immedi ate. Tbe dropsy gradually left me the diffi culty in the kidneys tbe gravel also left me, and stranre. also, too ones, so long a con stant source of distress, bealed up; and in the use of only three large bottles I became a well man. Your medicine I consider the greatest production of the age. Its curative proper ties are astonishing, and to its sola use I am now indebted for the sound state of health I now enjoy. I am better than I bave been in 20yers. "T. F. BINGHAM. "I testify ta tbe above cure, having known this ease for some years, while a medical stu dent in that county, and I am now aware Mr. Bingham is a well man, solely by the use of tn. I Lithoatnptie Mixture. "I will add that 1 have known other im portant cures made with tbe tame article, and consider it a valuable compound. "A. P. PARSONS. "Practicing Pbysieiad in Chautauqua ty.N.

We would that the public should know that a remedy is at hand that can be relied upon in the most extreme ca ses where worms are the primary cause of their suffenne. And those that are pinine away a miserable existence, an der the supposition that they are dys peptic, when v orms are actually prey' ing upon the very vitals of their life, should use llobensack s Worm Syrup ere it is too late. Evidence certifying to the wonderful efficacy of Hobensack's Worm Syrup in expelling worms, and a Mother' grief changed to joy by its use: This is to certify, that two or three weeks past, two of toy children were at tacked with worms. I ased every reme dy I knew, bot wilhout effect, they yet growing worse, until the disease tasomed tn alarmingly fatal character, that I and all who saw tbem, felt assured that death most soon close the scene, if relief waa not soon obtained. One of them presen ted a fearful picture of suffering; she was literally alive with worms, her counte nance bad a pillid, death-like hue, her breath extremely offensive, br frame wore down to a mere skeleton, and all tbe symptoms attendant upon worms or a highly aggravated state. To such a fear ful extent did the disease arrive, that sbt pawed worms from her note, followed by copioos bleeding. At tbit time I obtained a bottle of yonr Worm Syrup, and gave it with but little hope, but wonderful to my, after a few doses, a great change wat perceptible, tnd in a few dare to my great joy and wonder, the two children passed a Urge wash basin full of worm a. Since that time they rapidly recovered, tnd are now perfectly cured. SUSAN THOMPSON, Oxford at., bet. Front and Second, Phila.
